I brilliant writing talent shining through on the last track 'space dye vest' whcih verges on being a progressive rock song and a movie score. It is deliverd though, with such emotion and passion that it could even be found to be a quite moving piece. 'Awake' well it's not 'Images & Words' but it is still Dream Theater doing what they do best and that little bit more tucked in behind. Buy it and Enjoy the talent.
